Abstract: Disclosed is a network-on-chip including a first data converter that receives first image data and second image data from at least one image sensor and encodes one image data among the first image data and the second image data, into first data, based on whether the first image data is identical to the second image data and a second data converter that receives non-image data from at least one non-image sensor and encodes the received non-image data into second data. The network-on-chip outputs the first data and the second data to transmit the first data and the second data to an external server at a burst length.
